It's Sew GRAND (and announcement)

I can finally announce... "I'm going to be a GRANDMOTHER"!!! I have known for a month and was sworn to secrecy. Do you have any idea how hard it is to be told you are going to be a grandmother "for the very first time" and then be told you can't tell ANYONE for a month!!!!! It was killing me.

On my blog posts, I was going on the premise that I was finally doing a scrapbook for my youngest son. It was a good reason for keeping the colors neutral. I will do a scrapbook for my son, but this one is for the new 1st grandbaby. I won't do anymore pages until we find out the sex so I can make at least 5 pages very pink or very blue...haha In the meantime.....as for my dear son Mitchell, I will start working on his 1st year scrapbook now....he just turned 19 last week!

( There are 3 sets of GRANDparents and 3 great-GRAND parents so this is a page I dedicated for us and them.) So....ain't it GRAND!!!

This is simply FANTASTIC news, Cely! Congrats to Bryan, Shannon and the whole family! Your layouts are fabulous, and it's great that you have a head start with them. Can't wait to see if the majority will be pink or blue! :)

Cely, congrats! You must be over the moon with excitement! This is so darling. Love the Sewing idea! And the little mouse is adorable. I am not a grandmother yet either but I can imagine how you would feel. How lucky that little one will be to have you around!

Congratulations! I thought they were for YOUR son! I sure hope you get LOTS of time with the new baby and you fall in love all over again. I'm so blessed my girls have grandparents (I didn't have ANY) and I know you will bring such joy to this little one's life!!

As for your layout - gorgeous. I especially love the pins in the tomato! And you even included a seam ripper. How perfect.

Congrats, Cely! I'm so happy for you!!! I'm also embarrassed to wish you a very belated Happy Birthday! My son was home for 2 weeks of spring break and I didn't even look at a calendar and then I forgot >.< I'm sure you were doing some dancing on the beach when you found out about the little one on the way ;- ) Shag on!

Your life is SO ABOUT TO CHANGE!!!! It's a lovely time in life, but, beware, it can be exhausting!!!!! and why was it so much easier to ignore our kids whining and crying and so difficult when it's a grandchild - LOL! CONGRATS AND ENJOY!!!!!

What incredible news, Cely! Grandchildren are God's reward for not eating out own young. :-D Wonderful page and how terrific to think about as page for the grands and great-grands! Keep working on it, gal. You're doin' great!

Congrats on the news, lucky you, great times ahead! Think of all the wonderful things you will be able to create for for the child: cards, boxes treat bag and on & on. Maybe I should say lucky kid!! Happy for you! Love the scrapbook pages! hugsGlenda

About Me

I'm a Carolina Girl who loves the beach, beach music, along with fishing, sailing swimming and people watching on the beach, but my body is stuck in Greenville, South Carolina. I would rather have the intense sun on my back and the hot grainy sand in my shoes than to have a comfortable chair to sit and view the Blue Ridge Mountains.
I'm an obsessor of colors and paper crafting. I truly believe making cards and crafts keeps my heart and mind healthy.
As a child I can remember getting my fanny spanked on a weekly basis for leaving my art work on all the walls in our house. Paper had too small of boundaries!!
